Join us for our annual community Plant Swap—buy, sell, trade, or give away your plants and garden goods. Bring seeds, seedlings, plants, divisions, flowers, shrubs, vegetables, pots, or garden gear—or simply come to browse and connect. Even if you don’t have anything to share, you’re welcome to join us and help make sure there are no “homeless” plants. Trade garden wisdom with neighbors and discover which plants thrive best in our area—everything shared is well-suited to local growing conditions.
The Plant Swap will take place on Saturday, May 2, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Linden Farm (Sugarloaf Barns), 20900 Martinsburg Road, Dickerson, MD. The event is free, open to all, and held outdoors, rain or shine. Please check sugarloafcitizens.org/events or our Facebook page on May 1 for any updates.
